Canada has always had an impressive live performance base all across the country. I'm sure that per capita it far surpasses on that.

For Many Companies,Overseas I suspect you should look into the entertainment industries that were outsourced from America to Toronto over the last twenty years. At one point it was the entertainment industries that were America's prime export in the world and the only thing that rescued the export deficit. But the Puritans here sold the goose.
